This is indeed, very annoying, and I hope it will be addressed. Sometimes I'm sending video links to multiple persons and get 60 notifications in a minute. This renders the sharing unusable.

[RodSeq]

This very annoying bug is still not fixed in Nextcloud 29.0.4

Would be great to solve this bug soon, so that people working on video-editing and montage can use Nextcloud to its full potential, knowing how many people have effectively viewed a video that has been shared
